Family bonding time!

I really cherish our yearly reunions. I rarely see my uncles, aunts, cousins, nieces, nephews and grandchildren. (I have four! And there is one coming next year.. gosh.. I feel old! :( ) It was so good to see them so grown up! And lots of very cute kids too! Ahaha! I feel like a paparazzi chasing after them for their silly antics. :P

Lots of girl bonding time with Grace, Ate Eleng, Ate Julie, Ate Jane, Valen, Dyan and others.. haha.. Its really fun to just spend time together and keep on joking about everything under the sun... or moon for those moments. XD

I wish I was there a day before the reunion. I feel like I've missed a lot. T_T

I was the camera girl again, but this time Grace had a camera too. More moments to capture! Yay! :D

Oh well... sacrifices. At least when we got home at lunch time on December 26, the doggies were still active and very hungry. Ehehe.. ^^;

Merry Christmas!

May the spirit of the holidays be with everyone!

Tomorrow I'll be in Nueva Ecija. We will hold our family reunion there, and everyone is excited to meet and have fun! Of course, there will be lots of food and games. I'm one of the game masters... as usual... haha! I'm really excited because the last time we had Christmas in the province was more than 10 years ago... woo! XD

My parents and my brother already left, around 5:30am this morning. I will be commuting tomorrow around 2am (so that I'll be on time for the start of the reunion!) and it's my first time to go there... alone. Haha.. This going to be an adventure! Let's pray that I get there safely. XD

Cheers! :)

Another Engg Week...

Another fun-filled week! We bagged 3rd place in the EWOC! Can you believe it? Third place! That's the highest we got in my whole stay in UP! I'm so happy I was a part of it! :D

I've always been participating in the Engg Week, eversince first year college. I already watched Ms. Engg (And yes, that was Ben.. haha.) before I became an ERG member. And yes, being an ERG member was one of the best decisions of my life! I'm so proud of this organization! Its full of passionate people who strive to be the best! :)

Thank God for such a successful week. Bagging the third spot was not an easy task. People were running in and out of the Engineering building to go to different events. The power of cellphones and other means of communication were tested. I also got stuck in the elevator with Tina, and other ERG people because of overloading (happened just a while ago). :P

This is my last Engineering Week, so it was very memorable for me. All the moments - the sacrifices, the drama, the name-callings, the bashings, the talent, the presentations, the preparations for Indakan and Maskipaps where we made the props for the participants and the set, not watching the Lantern Parade for the first time because I was part of the parade, and EVERYTHING.

Thank you DEP. Thank you very much for the wonderful times. ERG will always have a special place in my heart.

On 3 on 3...

ERG FIGHT!!! :D

Snow...

CONES!!!

I had my first snow cone yesterday. It was just strawberry-flavored ice. I bought it on impulse. It was quite expensive, but I just had to experience eating one. To tell the truth, it's better to have an ice candy (the ones we used to make) than that snow cone. ^^;

And another first in my life! I rode the "Libreng Sakay" Bus that was roaming around UP. Hehehe... I was eating the snow cone while I was on that ride. I also ended up getting off at V. Luna instead of Philcoa. Oh well... it was free! XD

I had an exam this morning. It was hard and with four questions... it should have been a 4 hour exam instead of just 1.5 hours. T_T

Anyway, I have no more class next week. Hooray! We only have to get the microstructure of the specimens for 115 and then I'm soooooo free! Engg Week madness, here I come! XD

Why working for the yearbook is great?

- You get to contribute to your graduating class and to the whole college.
- You are able to make sure that the yearbook and the graduation ball are nearly perfect.
- Meeting different people for the printing press and the studio.
- Having fun and diverse staff members.
- Meeting the graduating class, knowing them by names.
- Getting trusted to do the yearbook and handle the finances.
- Freebies :D

And I am not going to post the disadvantages. :P

It's December! Hehe.. my favorite time of the year. Engg week! Christmas! Reunions! :D
